But the truth is that the same or GREATER degree of outrage should have been there when the SCOTUS handed the presidency to bush. Taken in isolation, that illegal act did far more damage to this country and the world than did any of the numerous illegal and inhumane acts that bushco has launched in the last 3.5 years, including the disgusting torture and abuse that took place in bushco's gulags.
It's a sad fact that had the Congress, the media and the American people stood up to the coup in Dec 2001, the tortures would have never occurred in the first place (feel free to extrapolate what else wouldn't have happened).
It's ironic that - by falsely and ignobly holding the protections of ONE person more important than the Constitution itself - the SCOTUS' decision in Bush v Gore has removed the equal protection of the many and has led DIRECTLY to the deaths and tortures of thousands of individuals around the world.
But the worm has turned. And while hope springs eternal, we must acknowledge not only the battles ahead, but wormwood and gall that we as a country will be consuming for decades, all thanks to an idiot who believes he gets his marching orders from the tooth fairy.
